RRCUS 2009 National Speciaty in Lansing, MI
Foosa and her 4 show pups attended the RRCUS National this year and did very well. The pups are 14 months old.
Highlights
- Foosa placed 3rd in Open B Obedience with a score of 192/200 for our first "silver sports car trophy" of the National
- Rylee and Piper both made the cut in the 12-15 month puppy Bitch Sweeps out of 28 entered
- Ramsay made the cut out of the 12-15 month Puppy Dog Sweeps.
- Foosa placed 4th in both the Rally Advanced B, and 3rd Rally Excellent B Classes, winning 2 more nice trophies and another leg towards her RAE.
- Piper won FIRST PLACE in Rally Advanced B to beat her mom, she was the youngest dog competing in that class by 2 years of age! She also earned her first Trophy of the National.
- Piper and Neila both earned Obedience "Q's" in Novice obedience for legs towards their titles!
- Neila made the cut from OVER 30 participants in the 12-18 month Bitch conformation class, so officially all 4 pups were noticed by the conformation judges at this National!
- Foosa was honored 3 times at the awards ceremony with her HUGE Rosettes and Certificates: the first was for placing in the 2008 Top 10 for Obedience, as well as earning her VC award, she was also one of only 2 VCX (Versatility Certificate Excellent) titles awarded for 2008!!!
- Piper got to participate in the Parade of Triathalon, for her nice rosette. She did very well only missing a select award by 1/2 point. Pretty good for being the youngest competitor. She also earned a triathalon triple qualifier Pin.
- ASFA Lure Coursing, Piper took NBQ for a rosette and her 2nd trophy.
- Rylee also passed her CERF eye health test, had her Thyroid tested, and had a great showing in Novice Rally, narrowly missing the ribbon!
- At a RR only satellite AKC Coursing event Neila took a 5 point Major from the Open Stake and went on to win Best of Breed for multiple trophies!
- Winning is a Family affair as The Sire of the pups, Captain, took 3rd place in the Veteran 11yrs + class, and made the cut in the Stud Dog class.
